CTifer said: Classic is another word for "old" or "nostalgia inducing", maybe even "simplistic"... Play most of these 'classics' for more than 10 minutes and you're like "Yeah, not quite as good as I remember." Case in point: When I first got my XBox, I kept saying "Double Dragon would be perfect for XBox Live Arcade" on the xbox.com forums. Well, they put it up and after trying the Demo, I didn't even care to download and unlock the full game. And by updated, I meant things like Online play/leaderboards. Updated graphics and achievements are just gravy for most of us... I'm 32 years old and I've been a gamer since I was about 5. I know all about these 'Classics'... |
What thesaurus are you looking at? Not all "old" games are classics. Not all classics are "simplistic" and a classic can't be "nostalgia inducing" if you've never played it.
There are games where I have said "Yeah, not quite as good as I remember." Those are not classics. Games like Super Mario Bros., Metroid and even Ms. Pac-man are just as good as I remember.
